Fluorescence Lifetime - Time Domain

FluoroLog®-TCSPC
Time-Correlated Single-Photon Counting on the World's Most Sensitive Spectrofluorometer. The World's Most Sensitive Spectrofluorometer, with TCSPC ready to perform time-domain lifetime spectroscopy! You get the reliability and know-how of the Spex® FluoroLog® series, together with the solid-state economy and sensitivity of IBH lifetime analysis, all in one instrument. All functions are software controlled from a host computer, giving you access to data with just a few keystrokes. A high repetition rate light source rapidly builds up a histogram of the sample's fluorescence decay.

Microscopy & Mapping

FluoroMap
The Spex^® FluoroMap features high sensitivity, confocal microscopy with spatial resolution down to 1 mm, wide spectral response from the UV to near-IR, and time resolution down to the picosecond range, all in one modular instrument. The FluoroMap is a flexible, automated system for mapping fluorescence lifetime and emission.

TCSPC Confocal Microscope
HORIBA Jobin Yvon introduces a filter-based confocal system (the DynaMicT) to measure fluorescence lifetime and intensity directly under the microscope in the deep UV and visible (240-850 nm). With TCSPC's unequalled sensitivity, this microscope-fluorescence system finds wide applications in biotechnology and nanotechnology. The DynaMicT is especially useful for intrinsic protein fluorescence measurements, such as distinguishing tryptophan and tyrosine, with the 295 nm LED.

Remote Sensing

SkinSkan
The only in-vivo, fiber-optic spectrofluorometer. Designed specifically for skin-fluorescence and hair-fluorescence measurements. It is also ideal for many remote sensing steady-state fluorescence applications such as plants or sea life.

• A quartz fibre bundle selectively delivers uv-nir radiation to the subject, then collects the resulting fluorescence. There's no need for sample preparation, cuvettes, or adaptation.
• Unique spectrometer designs isolate the fluorescence signal from strong scattered backgrounds.
• Fast wavelength scanning minimises the time of measurement and exposure to excitation light.
• Compact and transportable to take the instrument to where the action is.

LifeSurf
Remote sensing fluorescence lifetime system for studying surfaces. Capable of performing fluorescence lifetime measurements on any surface. A key application concerns the in-vivo monitoring of skin for medical, healthcare, sun-screening and cosmetics research and others such as:

• Skin Monitoring
• Medical screening
• NDE on materials
• Paints
• Catalysts
• Ceramics
• Semiconductors
• Industrial QA

Process Monitoring

UrAssay
A turn-key uranium assay system with 0.1ppb sensitivity. Uses time-domain to achieve accurate measurements even on samples which would normally need extensive chemical pre-treatment.

• Measures uranyl concentrations from 0.1ppb to 40.0ppb
• Minimal chemical pre-treatment required
• Rapid - performs a measurement in under a minute
• Corrects for quenching due to contaminants
• Rejects short-lived fluorescence from organic contaminants
• HORIBA Jobin Yvon IBH can customise to meet specific measurement and reporting requirements
